GREEN BAY, WI (WTAQ-WLUK) – The reigning Super Bowl champions, the Kansas City Chiefs, are coming to play at Lambeau Field this weekend. And that means a likely appearance from Taylor Swift.
Since Swift started dating Chiefs all-pro tight end, Travis Kelce, earlier this year, she’s been spotted supporting her man in various NFL stadiums. Northeast Wisconsin hopes Lambeau Field is the next stadium on her tour.
“A lot of our partners are having Taylor Swift themed events. I think Anduzzi’s is doing a couple of things, you saw Heritage Hill and St. Brendan’s. All of these places trying to roll out the red carpet. I think it just showcases Green Bay’s hospitality,” said Nick Meisner with Discover Green Bay.
Known to fly in her private jet, Swift could arrive at either the Jet Air or Executive Air terminals at Green Bay’s Austin Straubel International Airport over the weekend.
According to Airport Director Marty Piette, “We’ve already reached out to her staff to do a little concert for us in the terminal or one of the FBOs, but they haven’t reached back out yet.”
While airport officials don’t know if Swift is actually making the trip, they invite anyone who wants to try and see her to stop by the airport.
“You can park your car in the long-term or short-term parking lots, you can go up to the perimeter fence of the airfield and look through the fence. Definitely don’t try to climb over the fence or walk through any gates — that will cause a problem. But the public is welcome to come out and try to get a glimpse,” added Piette.
Taylor Swift wouldn’t be the first celebrity to fly into Green Bay or make a Lambeau Field appearance for a Packers game.
Charlie Sheen cozied up to fans back in 2015. Justin Timberlake and Jay-Z have been to Lambeau Field. Lil Wayne has been there too, even running out onto the field with the team against Detroit back in September.
And it was just last month when the most decorated gymnast in history, Simone Biles, graced the sidelines to cheer on her husband, Packers safety Jonathan Owens. Biles has said she’d be at the Kansas City game too.
“That would be super cool, right? Right in the heart of Green Bay, Wisconsin — one of the biggest popstars of all time and one of the greatest Olympians of all time, meeting up right here. It would be another great way to shine a light on our community,” Meisner said.
But it appears the unknown of Swift’s plans — the will she or won’t she be at Lambeau Field? — that has Green Bay giddy. Meisner said, “That anticipation and not knowing has really heightened it.”
